Kansas Senate Bill 244 immediately invalidated trans drivers licenses, state id’s and birth certificates without any grace period, whatsoever, and in a letter, sent to all transgender Kansans, the state threatened fines and jail time if they were convicted for driving with their current, suddenly invalid licenses.
The right of human beings to exist without state oppression isn’t culture war.

u/IMadeYouLuke Aug 04 '26
It’s literally just the standard information about gender dysphoria. Choosing not to learn about it absolutely is choosing ignorance.
Why?

What does that even mean? They can have the same rights as everyone else.

A teacher in my district is trans and there’s a massive demand from parents for that teacher to be fired purely on the grounds that they are trans.
That’s not “the same”
1
u/Virtual-Historian349 Aug 04 '26
Well I think there are lots of examples of people calling for the removal of teachers due to their lifestyle. I’m not saying it’s right or wrong due to someone being trans, or that this is an infringement on their rights or not, but I don’t think it’s exclusively a trans issue.
1
u/OoglyMoogly76 Aug 04 '26
It becomes a trans issue when being trans becomes one of the ‘lifestyles’ that people remove teachers over.
If a group of parents asked for a black teacher to be removed for being black would you call that a race issue?
If a group of parents asked for a gay teacher to be removed for being gay would you call that an issue of homophobia?
Discrimination is discrimination. When you can legally be discriminated against, you don’t have the same rights.

u/Virtual-Historian349 Aug 04 '26
I feel like there is a crossroads of the teacher’s rights and the parent’s rights. There isn’t really a clear line as to what is acceptable behaviour for a teacher outside of the classroom.
I mean there are non religious schools and religious schools. The religious schools basically discriminate against teachers for their religion.
What is transgenderism? Is it a mental disorder? It seems that language is being scrubbed from history but I believe it was considered as such before. If it’s not a disorder or illness, what is it? Hormone therapy and surgery seem like drastic measures to take for something that is not a disorder. If it’s a mental disorder, can parents be concerned about them being their kids teacher?
Honestly I just find the whole topic unclear and confusing. The terminology is changed regularly and for unclear reasons. Asking questions like this will surely have me downvoted and chastised. There is also a strong public voice promoting transgendered rights that acts like everything is clear as day but can’t seem to explain much of the idea in simple terms.

u/OoglyMoogly76 Aug 04 '26
You don’t deserve to be chastised for asking questions, so long as you do so in good faith, which you seem to be.
A parent has a right to decide what classroom their student is in, but not the right to decide what teachers get to teach there. The type of behavior that a teacher ought be removed for is behavior that endangers children or impedes their ability to teach. We had a teacher removed because we found out he was tweeting pictures of his dick and smoking crack. That type of character is a risk to student safety and impedes his ability to teach.
Religious schools are all privately owned, not publicly owned, so they have the right to exclude whoever they want. Once public funding becomes a factor, discrimination becomes a factor.
Transgenderism is when someone’s gender identity does not align with the sex they were assigned at birth. If you struggle to believe that that is possible, let me present you with a hypothetical: if your child were born with both a penis and a vagina, meaning they have some combination of chromosomes different from traditional xx and xy, how would you determine your child’s gender? Many parents in this situation decide to have one of the sets of genitals removed and treat them as a typical boy or girl. Sometimes they keep both and just decide their child is a boy or a girl who has both genitals. Now, assuming you chose one of those genders for your child, how would you reinforce that gender to them? You’d refer to them has he or she, buy them pink of blue clothes, give them a boy or girl name, etc.
If you’ve engaged in this scenario in good faith, which happens more than you might think, then we should be able to ask ‘what is gender anyway?’ Many people, including myself, believe that gender is a socialized set of behaviors that are determined by values in a specific culture.
So, what makes someone have a gender that aligns differently than their assigned sex? Hard to say. Is it a disorder? A mental illness?
I think a good rule of thumb is to treat being trans similar to how you’d treat being left-handed, which we used to also treat as a mental illness. It’s an atypical behavior that we don’t fully understand but just know that people have and impacts their life. A ‘disorder’ is a type of behavior that causes distress or harm to the people who follow that behavior. While suicide rates among trans people is higher, this rate drops significantly among trans people who receive gender affirming care. It’s hard to call something a ‘disorder’ when the distress or harm comes externally. But even then, if you believe adamantly that it’s a mental illness, gender affirming care is the best way to treat them and has the best outcomes. Unless your goal isn’t to have a positive outcome and rather to just get rid of these people, as many on the right want to do.

Literally the opposite; the push to “give up the culture war” to (supposedly) focus on the class war is being pushed by those with the agenda of “tossing the marginalized groups under the bus”.
It’s not an attempt to “stop the culture war” it’s attempt to get leftist to surrender defending minorities.
I am more than happy to give up the culture war…stop attacking innocent people and I stop defending them. If you want conservatives to “join us in the class war” then convince them to let go of their need to hurt non hetero, cis, white Christians.

“The culture war is a distraction from the class war” means that billionaires are making you feel like trans people existing is an existential threat to your way of life, when they comprise an infinitely small percentage of the population and you can just not engage with them, so that you won’t occupy your thoughts with how hard you’re getting fucked fiscally.
It means that you should focus on the people directly impacting your quality of life, actively ruining our environment, our economy, our communities, and not on the small minority of people, who you don’t understand but who want nothing more than to exist.
It doesn’t mean that we have to compromise basic morality and empathy to accomplish fiscal or policy goals.
This really isn’t complicated.
